'Derby City Museums Celebrate LGBT History Month


To celebrate Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender History month, Derby Museums invite you to join a discussion about how museums and their collections represent sexuality. Assistant Director Jonathan Wallis will begin by looking at the ways in which museums have or have not addressed this issue. There will be an opportunity to suggest ways in which the diverse histories of LGBT experience can or should be represented by our own museums and galleries'

This quote is from the www.derby.gov.uk website. It may shed some light on why Derby City Council fostering panel rejected a Christian couple's application to foster because they would not be able to promote homosexuality.

I have no axe to grind with any member of the LGBT community but I do wonder if Derby City Council would demand that a LGBT couple promote heterosexuality, Christianity or anything else that they don't agree with to their little charge. just to please a bunch of PC sycophants.

Shame on anyone from the LGBT community who accept being used in this way and shame on anyone from any community that sees this as anything else but oppression and bigotry.

To make a complanint, go to the Derby City Council website www.derby.gov.uk then follow the links from the Council, Government and Democracy heading. Complaints can be made online and if no satisfaction is received, then the matter can be referred to the local government Ombudsman.
